RamblinRed Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Article on wing gust as well as early predictions on insurance damage. The fact that alot of Acapulco (including some commercial real estate) is not insured is going to make this even worse long term. https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2023/11/01/hurricane-otis-produced-205-mph-wind-gust-among-strongest-ever-measured/ “The direct physical damage and net-loss business interruption costs from Hurricane Otis will result in a minimum $10 billion in economic losses,” Steve Bowen, chief science officer for the global reinsurance broker Gallagher Re, said in an email. “It will be one of the costliest natural catastrophe events on record for Mexico.” Verisk, a data analytics and technology firm, estimates insured losses of 3 to 6 billion dollars, most of it due to Otis’s extreme winds.

Normandy Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Otis is easily one of the wildest hurricanes I’ve seen. The damage it did in the small amount of time was something else. Hopefully the city is on their way to a fast recovery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd love a storm named 'Bud'. The E side of the LLC is exposed, It looks like shear, but CIMMS shows only 10 knots. GFS shows dry air to the N and E that looks like it will follow Bud for a while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gallopinggertie Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Any thoughts on invests 90/91 in the Central Pacific? NHC has them up to 90% and it looks like any storm that forms will track close to Hawaii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHC has them up to 90% and it looks like any storm that forms will track close to Hawaii. Once 90E forms a clear center of circulation, we should get a better idea of most likely track. Having tracked for the last few days since this threat started to show up in long range models, cone has included misses North and South of the islands but have been coming together to suggest big island is at risk for a cat 1 hurricane or strong TS. The tracks that hit big island also impact the other islands albeit with a significantly weakened storm. Flash flooding and mudslides are generally the biggest risks.
